Obama Mocks House of Representatives for Reaffirming 'In God We Trust'

In a speech plugging his American Jobs Act on Wednesday, President Obama criticized Congress for taking up a resolution on the national motto -- "In God We Trust" -- while the country faces a jobs crisis.

â€œWeâ€™ve been -- in the House of Representatives, what have you guys been debating? John, youâ€™ve been debating a commemorative coin for baseball? You had legislation reaffirming that â€˜In God We Trustâ€™ is our motto? Thatâ€™s not putting people back to work.

"I trust in God," Obama said, "but God wants to see us help ourselves by putting people back to work."...

Arira Hall[/AUTHORa woman is allowed one husband, see to it you do not try to rule over another man's wife or any woman who is not your own wife for in doing so you seek to rule over her husband and assert yourself do not submit to Christ.

The Church in Scripture is female, Christ's bride to be, awaiting his coming at the appointed time when all things shall be fulfilled. I am my Beloved's and he is mine. The woman is not without the man in the Lord nor the man without the woman. This is a dialog between who knows who with any certainty. It's draw is related to the unsettled state of the Church at this time. Neil, I believe a nation is a moral person as such as Matt.25:32 states. That means individual gospel ministers first, their membership as individuals, the individuals in government from the top down, and everyone that is not applicable to these catagories, but gave heard/seen the heavens declare the glory of God or the firmament showeth forth his handy work. We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ of which Matthew here addresses.

Settle with your adversary on the way to court Street preacher lest when you go with your adversary to the magistrate he drag you to the judge, the judge deliver you to the officer and the officer throw you into prison. "I tell you you shall not depart from there till you have paid the very last mite." And as for you adulterers - a woman is allowed one husband, see to it you do not try to rule over another man's wife or any woman who is not your own wife for in doing so you seek to rule over her husband and assert yourself over other men do you not? You will be judged with the adulterers and fornicators if you do not submit to Christ.

"Many Christians"? How about "All?" I've never heard of a Christian government, and moreover, only individuals can be Christians. There may be Christians *in* certain governments, but this does not make the governments Christian (Fallacy of Composition). I can find nothing in Scripture that defines a Christian model of civil government. Rom. 13 sets an ethical standard perhaps, but that is not the same thing.

And I would never trust anyone setting up a "Christian government," since most churches these days are run like petty fascist dictatorships, a very bad school for civil governance. Biblically, they are supposed to be something more like a republic, but I fear these are extremely rare.

Tena Koutou e kare nga tangata.Hello dear people.If I may be of some consolation. Many, many Christian's all around the world live in country's that do not have Christian governments. Yet we are able to witness to the truth to those who will hear. Our faith does not depend on our governments. We have learnt that In God We Trust.

A little American History well searched out will prove that Mr.(s) Washington, Jefferson and Franklin were well aware of the position I take. I'm not the first to have taken it in this nation or across the sea. And I differ with our NZ guest because there was a nation that was recognized as a Christian nation, by their vows to God and one another, they were brave suffers, in the face of much ignorance and fear from their own country men and others. God has not forgotten his witnesses, though men may forget. These brethren gave themselves first to the Lord and then to one another. 2 Cor. 8:5 "And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God," This they did to preserve Christ's Headship in the Church & they vowed their allegiance to the Magistrate according as he upheld Christ's Kingship in His Church and His Glory as Creator over all men. These men Franklin et. al. were well aware of the Covenanter position, though more for taking what they liked and dis-guarding the rest. Some of Scotland's best citizens came to this nation on slave ships, though not all lived to tell about it. Others sought refuge in Ireland, England and the Netherlands. These were those of whom the world was not worthy.

Let's have all the Christians prove how righteous they are by getting all worked up about a a mindless logo, no matter how palpably untrue it is.And then let's use it to bash a president, who whether you agree with his policies or not, is more focused on real priorities of government.---

The president may indeed be focused on "jobs" and "the economy." It's just that the results so far seem to indicate that it's not to allow conditions whereby more jobs, and a healthy economy can possibly happen, rather the opposite. But it's always in the president's best interest to blame Congress, or anybody else, isn't it?

Re: Street Preacher's commentsI understand where RP is coming from and it is from a historical Covenanter stand. He is not some undercover Jesuit, if this is what you are inferring. Also, please read an editorial I wrote about Christians and Conspiracy theories at my blog: http://angelawittman.blogspot.com/2011/08/question..

THE HOLY BIBLE BEN FRANKLIN READ (BUT NEVER LITERALLY BELIEVED) FROM; AS DID HIS PERSONAL FRIEND, GEORGE WHITEFIELD; WHO BIBLICALLY-LITERALLY PREACHED FROM THE KING JAMES BIBLE: AS DID BOTH WESLEY BRS. IN USHERING IN "THE GREAT AWAKENING" !

IT WAS VIA THE GREAT AWAKENING THAT THE U.S. NATIONAL MOTTO "IN GOD WE TRUST" WAS INGRAINED-ENGRAVED IN THE SPIRITS, SOULS & PSYCHE OUR COLONIAL-U.S. FOREFATHERS !

NOW, SINCE OBAMA IS AN ANTI-U.S.-CONSTITUTION-POSER & BOGUS-FAKE-FRAUD-PHONEY-CRIMINAL-ILLEGAL-U.S.-PRESIDENT; WHOM FRANKLIN & OUR FOREFATHERS WOULD'VE HUNG FOR THE "HIGH-CRIME[S] &-OR HIGH-MISDEMENOR[S]" OF "USURPATION", USURPING, BREAKING &-OR WARRING AGAINST THE U.S. & HER CONSTITUTION:

There isn't any mention of a Christian nation in the bible called The United States of America either. Christian's don't have any historical roots in any one nation, we weren't evicted from a homeland by another conquering nation, we have none to return too. Christian's are landless, nation-less people found all over the planet. The bible says the humble will inherit the earth.Do you think your president cares whether or not you vote him in or out?
